Sweetest

I'm blogging about my valentine's date though it's been two weeks since I met up with my very dear friend, Alvin. It wasn't really a date and let me just make this clear: our relationship is very platonic and there's no way in the world we'll ever be romantically linked to each other. But here's the sweet part, it's the best valentine's day I have ever had so far in the history of mankind.

Alvin is working in china with Bert. So before Alvin went home that week, Bert emailed me saying that Alvin will be arriving just in time for the valentine's day and so just in case I don't have a date, he'll be my back up. They're both very good friends of mine and it's always a joy seeing them because Alvin really cracks me up. And Bert, well, he always surprises me with his weird antics. That week, Bert will be in Malaysia so he can't come home.

So Alvin and I met up. He gave me his pasalubongs. Yes, pasalubongs! He gave me Gucci rush perfume and a big big box of Cadbury's. Yun palang, ok na.

We were suppose to eat at Bellini's but since it was Valentine's day and we have no reservations, the place was crowded; and so we ended up at Italianni's. Italian pa rin! My favorite food. Then we had coffee at Figaro, my choice pa rin. But I guess, the most important thing that night was our conversation. Our best conversation ever!

I was really feeling so special that night.

I realized that with or without a boyfriend, I'm fine. I feel blessed having such wonderful friend who loves me genuinely, who gives so much without asking for anything in return, and who will always stay in my life forever no matter what. And that's the sweetest!
